Creator's Key Takeaways

the retreat i think was well worth the money so you get food in there you can have breakfast in there you can have drinks packaged

the service in there was impeccable they they couldn't do enough they were constantly coming around seeing any more drinks

the massages are incredibly reasonable yes they're a similar price to what you'd pay on land

i was disappointed with the thermal suite i was it was tired it's very tired quite a lot of it wasn't working

YouTube Video Description

In this video we take a look at P&O Ventura's Retreat, Spa & Thermal Suite, and give our review on whether the upcharges, or additional extras are worth it. The retreat is an upcharge area of Ventura (and other ships including Iona & Britannia) where guests can pay a smallish daily fee to have a more exclusive area to relax, sunbathe or generally take in the sea air and views. As usual with our reviews, our commentary is done is a single live take, with no scripts or rehearsals, just Linzi & Mark, having a chat. We hope you enjoy our thoughts, and that they are useful for you on any future trip. If you like our content, and we hope you do, please consider subscribing, and liking our video, as this will help us massively as we grow our channel, and if you really want to, hit to notification bell button to be told when our new videos are published.
